You'll be able to steer the car—and, presumably, crash it, although I'm sure you'd somehow be liable—but also "experience many of the [crossover]'s deluxe features," like touch-screen navigation. It all sounds well and good, but unless the Outlander Sport's interior smells like old socks and the seats are Pottery Barn knock-offs, I don't think my living room's going to give me a good sense of what it's like to drive one.

The program runs November 1 through November 10, and you can sign up for a slot starting tomorrow. [Mitsubishi via Jalopnik]
